Christmas Day's Turkish Super Lig predictions including Hatayspor vs. Besiktas

Kasimpasa vs. Caykur Rizespor (Monday, 2.00pm)

Turkish Super Lig adversaries Kasimpasa and Caykur Rizespor will both be out to end 2023 with a flourish when they lock horns in Monday's top-flight showdown at Recap Tayyip Erdogan Stadium.

Sami Ugurlu's men were held to a goalless stalemate by Antalyaspor in their most recent affair, while the visitors prolonged their unbeaten run by demolishing Pendikspor 5-1.

We say: Kasimpasa 2-2 Caykur Rizespor

For all of their wonderful exploits in front of the home faithful, Rizespor have just two goals to show from their last five away matches in the Turkish Super Lig and now butt heads with a side who have scored at least three goals in each of their last five home battles.

Kasimpasa ought to reignite their goalscoring touch on familiar territory, but with Rizespor showcasing their comeback powers in midweek, we can envisage an entertaining affair ending all square.

Alanyaspor vs. Samsunspor (Monday, 2.00pm)

Relegation-threatened Alanyaspor host Samsunspor in the Turkish Super Lig at the Alanya Oba Stadium on Christmas Day, seeking to move further away from danger.

Both sides, who have identical records in recent gameweeks, are separated by three points in the table before the round 18 encounter.

We say: Alanyaspor 2-2 Samsunspor

Despite Samsunspor's injury worries, Monday's game could end in a tie, with both in-form sides possibly cancelling each other out in Alanya.

Hatayspor vs. Besiktas (Monday, 5.00pm)

Besiktas will be hoping to end a difficult year with a positive result when they head to Mersin Stadyumu to take on Hatayspor in the Super Lig on Monday evening.

The hosts are currently in 11th place in the league standings with 19 points after 16 matches, while the visitors have managed 26 points over the same period and are fifth.

We say: Hatayspor 2-2 Besiktas

Besiktas are in tatters at the moment and go into this match short-handed to face an opponent that are performing well on their home patch. Hatayspor are unbeaten in their last three matches against Besiktas and we fancy them to take something from this one as well.

Pendikspor vs. Ankaragucu (Monday, 5.00pm)

Pendikspor will be looking to put a poor run of form behind them as they welcome mid-table dwellers Ankaragucu to Siltas Yapi Pendik Stadium on Monday evening in the Turkish Super Lig.

The hosts are currently on a losing streak which threatens to condemn them to relegation, while Ankaragucu have failed to secure maximum points in recent matches.

We say: Pendikspor 0-1 Ankaragucu

Pendikspor have struggled severely at home this term and are currently on their worst run of form in three years, so their success on Monday seems unlikely.

Ankaragucu have steadied the ship after a tumultuous fortnight, and the Eagles should be good enough for all three points in this one.
